Reviews
This was easily the highlight of the trip for me. The tour guides were very organized and informative. They actually insisted we get some hydrating drinks before getting to the event and boy were they right. It was a hot day! The seats were good and the guides even secured us some commerative scarves for the occasion. Worth every yen and I had a great time.
The guides were very friendly and gave us good information on wjere to watch the parade after the performance. I thoroughly enjoyed the day.
Very interesting tour, extremely knowledgeable and helpful guide, clear and engaging explanations. Recommended!
